was just trying to find a PHP based web framework;
(sorry to say this) => I was very much impressed by Perl catalyst framework (http://catalystframework.org)
I was searching for a PHP based MVC webframework which is similar to catalyst
I wanted to reuse the existing template library {Smarty}, none of PHP webframework offered direct/simple ways of using smarty
Here is the list:
http://www.phpmvc.net/docs/guides/guide ... hpmvc-tags
next comes zend framework:
first line that appeared to me in the site was:
Zend Framework’s View class has very bad capability for extending. It contains template variables but does not allow to access them
http://kpumuk.info/php/zend-framework-u ... ate-engine
Cake PHP and symfony:
I can see lots of <??> tags in the view layer
http://manual.cakephp.org/chapter/views
http://www.symfony-project.com/book/tru ... View-Layer
All I just want was:
I wanted to reuse the existing PEAR libraries
Use smarty for templating/in the View layer of my MVC Application
Additionally:
few helper scripts that can automate creating the folder structure and source files for my MVC application.
I am badly addicted to comfort that lies using php; at the same time don't want to compromise with what it does not have.
still searching for one in the web hyperspace...........
